  • The Difference Between Having a Kid and Being a Parent: Jason Haswell - Episode 12
    Jun 20 2025
    What’s the difference between having a kid and being a parent? Everything.

    In this no-filter, high-impact episode of Bald, Bearded, and Bold, host Jason Haswell lays it all out: the harsh truth that today’s younger generations—Millennials and Gen Z—just aren’t getting the full picture of what real parenting means.This isn’t some gentle, sugar-coated parenting podcast. This is bold, raw truth from a father who’s lived it. If you’re under 35, a new parent, or even just thinking about having kids, this episode is going to challenge everything you’ve seen on TikTok, Instagram, and Pinterest.Because Jason Haswell isn’t here to shame you—he’s here to wake you up.

    Jason’s Core Message: “You can post baby pics, throw a gender reveal party, and dress your toddler in boutique fashion—but none of that makes you a parent. That just means you made a human. Now what?”Throughout this episode, Jason dives deep into the cultural difference between having a child and actually raising one. With a voice equal parts wise, weary, and pissed off, he critiques how social media has twisted the definition of parenting—and how too many young parents are more concerned about aesthetic than accountability.

    Key Topics Covered in This Episode:
    • Why likes, reels, and photo dumps aren’t proof of parenting
    • How Millennials and Gen Z are confusing “gentle” with “weak”
    • Why discipline, structure, and presence will always matter more than “vibes”
    • How social media culture is producing a generation of overstimulated, under-parented kids
    • The tough-love truth: Being your kid’s friend isn’t your job. Leading them is.
    Jason Haswell doesn’t hold back.

    He calls out what needs called out, and if you’re a parent under 35? Consider this a wake-up call.You’ll hear Jason share real-life stories, jaw-dropping cultural examples, and brutally honest takes on the biggest issue facing families today: passive parenting in an overstimulated world.From screen addiction to entitlement, Jason connects the dots and shows how today’s digital-first, emotionally fragile parenting style is hurting kids more than helping them.🔊 Memorable Jason Haswell Soundbites:“You don’t get applause for being present. That’s the bare minimum.”“If an iPad is raising your toddler, you’re not a parent—you’re a bystander.”“We’re raising a generation that melts when they hear the word ‘no.’ And then we’re shocked when they can’t handle life.”“Parenting is love and limits. If you don’t give both, you’re giving up.”📢 This Episode is For You If:
    • You’re a new parent trying to figure it out
    • You’re sick of the fake, filtered parenting content on social media
    • You believe in structure, discipline, and showing up for your kids
    • You’re a dad, stepdad, mentor, or uncle who’s tired of being quiet about what’s broken
    • You want real talk, not parenting trends
    • You’re a Millennial or Gen Z parent who actually wants to do better
    Haswell’s Challenge to Young Parents: “You think you’re parenting because you care. But do you care enough to correct, to lead, to say ‘no,’ to unplug, and to show up even when it’s hard? Or are you parenting for the ‘gram and hoping that’s enough?”Jason’s not preaching from a pedestal—he’s in the trenches. Bald, bearded, and bold, yes—but also real, relatable, and ready to push the hard conversations forward.This episode will call you out, lift you up, and maybe even piss you off—but you’ll walk away with a clearer vision of what parenting actually requires in a chaotic, distracted, digital world.

  • Dr. Phil's Biggest Fan: Coach Randy Mazey - Episode 11
    May 22 2025
    A Legacy of Leadership with Coach Randy Mazey | Bald, Bearded, and Bold PodcastLegacy of Leadership with Coach Randy Mazey | Bald, Bearded, and Bold Podcast In this powerful and heartfelt episode of Bald, Bearded, and Bold, we sit down with a man who has left an indelible mark not just on the game of baseball, but on the lives of the student-athletes he's coached and the community he's led — Coach Randy Mazey. As he prepares to close the chapter on his career as the head coach of the West Virginia University baseball team, Coach Mazey joins us for a candid and inspiring conversation. We dive deep into his journey — from arriving in Morgantown and building the WVU baseball program into a nationally respected force, to making the bold and deeply personal decision to step away from coaching to focus on being the best husband and father he can be.Coming to WVU: A New Challenge Coach Mazey reflects on what it meant to take the reins of the WVU baseball program in 2012. At the time, the team was transitioning into the competitive Big 12 Conference, and the challenges were substantial. The facilities weren’t where they needed to be, and WVU baseball wasn’t yet a household name on the national stage. But for Mazey, it wasn’t about inheriting a ready-made powerhouse — it was about building something special from the ground up. With a competitive fire and a clear vision for the program’s future, he brought in a new culture of discipline, grit, and belief. From recruiting players who fit his blue-collar ethos to leading the charge for better facilities — including the state-of-the-art Monongalia County Ballpark — Mazey has been the driving force behind one of the most inspiring turnaround stories in college baseball.Building More Than a Baseball Program Throughout our conversation, one thing becomes crystal clear: Coach Mazey never saw his role as just teaching baseball. His mission has always been about building men of character, resilience, and integrity. Under his leadership, the WVU baseball program became a family — one rooted in mutual respect, accountability, and support. He shares stories about the early years, the long practices, the games that didn’t go their way, and the big wins that reminded everyone why they believed in the journey. From leading the team to multiple NCAA Regional appearances to seeing his players succeed on and off the field, Coach Mazey’s time at WVU is more than a highlight reel — it’s a legacy of growth and transformation.Walking Away with Purpose Perhaps the most powerful part of the conversation is Coach Mazey’s decision to walk away. In a sports world that often glorifies the grind and the never-ending pursuit of titles, Mazey is choosing something else: presence. He opens up about the decision to retire from coaching to focus on being a better husband to his wife Amanda and a more present father to their children. There’s emotion in his voice as he explains how the demands of coaching — the travel, the pressure, the late nights — slowly began to pull him away from the things that matter most. And in true Mazey fashion, he didn’t just make a decision for himself — he made a statement to every coach, every dad, and every leader watching: Sometimes the boldest move isn’t chasing the next win, it’s choosing to be fully present for your family. It’s a message that hits home, and it’s one that defines what it truly means to be “Bald, Bearded, and Bold.”The Lighter Side: Dr. Phil, Dad Jokes, and Down-to-Earth Wisdom Of course, no episode would be complete without some laughs, and Coach Mazey brings plenty. In one of the more surprising and entertaining turns of the conversation, he reveals his deep admiration for none other than Dr. Phil. That’s right — the man known for calling pitches and building a nationally ranked baseball program is also a devoted fan of daytime TV’s most famous psychologist. Mazey talks about how Dr. Phil’s no-nonsense, cut-through-the-noise advice has influenced the way he mentors players and handles challenges in his own life. And it makes sense — both men are about accountability, truth, and cutting to the heart of what really matters. He also shares his love for the simple things: early mornings with his family, watching his kids play sports, and finally getting to experience the other side of the bleachers as a parent. The genuine joy and peace in his voice as he talks about this next chapter is both refreshing and inspiring.A Message for the Next Generation As our conversation wraps up, Coach Mazey offers words of encouragement to the next generation of coaches, parents, and leaders. He talks about the importance of knowing your "why," being true to your values, and never losing sight of what really matters. He challenges listeners to think about success not just in terms of wins and championships, but in the legacy you leave behind and the lives you touch along the way. It’s clear that ...

  • Purpose Over Pressure - Redefining Tactical Training at GUNTRY WV: Jason Salyards - Episode 10
    May 15 2025
    Bald, Bearded, and Bold: A Conversation with Jason Salyards of GUNTRY WVIn a recent episode of Bald, Bearded, and Bold, listeners were treated to a powerful, grounded conversation with Jason Salyards, the Director of Training at GUNTRY WV. With a calm confidence shaped by military service, years of elite tactical instruction, and a deep love for community, Jason brings both humility and authority to the mic—qualities that have come to define his leadership in the world of firearms education. From his early days in the military to becoming one of the region’s most respected weapons instructors, Jason’s journey is about more than tactical know-how; it’s about service, family, and a relentless commitment to excellence.From Soldier to Teacher: The Journey Begins Jason Salyards’ story starts in the military, where he served with distinction and forged the foundation for the instructor he would later become. Like many veterans, his time in uniform wasn’t just about following orders or surviving deployments—it was about mastering skills, building discipline, and learning how to lead. During the podcast, Jason shared candid insights into the formative moments of his military experience—how structure, repetition, and mentorship shaped his perspective on training. It was in these demanding environments that he first discovered his love for teaching. “You can hand someone a weapon,” he says in the episode, “but the real magic is when you help them understand it—when they respect it, when they’re confident, and when they know how to use it safely.” That moment of realization—that training could be more than a requirement, that it could be a gift—was a turning point. Jason wasn’t just a soldier anymore. He was a teacher in the making.Training the Elite: Agencies, Law Enforcement & More After transitioning from the military, Jason found himself increasingly in demand. His calm demeanor, vast knowledge base, and real-world experience made him an ideal instructor for law enforcement officers, tactical teams, and government agencies across the country. But what sets Jason apart isn’t just his resume—it’s his approach. Whether he’s working with a rookie officer or a seasoned federal agent, Jason brings the same energy: clear communication, mutual respect, and a commitment to outcomes. “Training,” he explains in the podcast, “isn’t about proving how much you know. It’s about showing someone what they’re capable of—and then helping them believe it.” His work has earned him widespread recognition. Over the years, he has trained members of multiple agencies, from local police departments to federal units. His classes don’t just teach technical skills—they instill calm under pressure, ethical responsibility, and a deeper appreciation for what it means to carry a weapon.A New Chapter: GUNTRY WV in Wheeling Now, Jason is bringing that expertise to the Ohio Valley in a big way. As the head of training at GUNTRY WV, a state-of-the-art indoor shooting and training facility in Wheeling, West Virginia, he’s helping to build more than a business—he’s building a culture. GUNTRY WV isn’t your typical range. It’s an immersive, professional space designed to serve everyone from first-time shooters to advanced professionals. With classrooms, simulators, live-fire ranges, and community events, GUNTRY is redefining what a firearms training facility can be. For Jason, this is the culmination of everything he’s worked toward: a place where training is approachable, excellence is expected, and community comes first. “People walk in nervous, and they leave empowered,” he says. “That’s what we’re doing here—making people better. Not just with a gun, but in life.”Excellence for Everyone: From Beginners to Experts One of the most inspiring parts of the conversation was Jason’s passion for teaching everyone—not just seasoned shooters or professionals. Beginners, especially, hold a special place in his mission. “There’s nothing more rewarding than working with someone who’s never touched a firearm and watching them transform,” he reflects. “You see their confidence grow, their mindset shift. It’s powerful.” At GUNTRY WV, inclusivity is key. The staff is trained to meet people where they are—whether you’re a concealed carry permit applicant, a retired veteran looking to refine your skills, or a parent who just wants to learn gun safety for the home. This philosophy—rooted in patience, friendliness, and trust—isn’t an accident. It’s built into the DNA of the training culture Jason has helped to establish. “Excellence,” he reminds listeners, “isn’t about ego. It’s about consistency, humility, and doing the work.”Why Wheeling? A Family, a Community, a Calling When asked why he chose to put down roots in Wheeling, West Virginia, Jason’s answer is simple and heartfelt: family and community. “I fell in love with the Ohio ...
